Your best work gloves?

[AlwaysChafed]

What is everyone using?

I'm looking for gloves that are thin, durable, and a "possibility" of lasting six months.

The PVC coated gloves are OK at best, they wear out pretty fast, and your hands smell like poop forever. Something about that coating is rancid to my nose, lasting throughout the weekend, lol. Pumice doesn't even penetrate that smell or cut it off. I was thinking batting gloves but those might be too thin... Any recommendation is greatly appreciated.

you're better off finding cheap ones you can replace frequently unless you and those around you dont mind smelly gloves. right now there is a deal at home depot 3 pairs of FG gloves for 9.88. i change mine every 2 to 3 weeks so 20 bucks gets you through the summer. youll find the 3 packs of which i speak in a bin near the customer service counter

That's not bad! I'll check them out.

Yeah, I can handle them for about a month, then it's sock smell time and into the bin.

Are those thin enough for the DIAD/Stylus?

I don't use glove all year. Only Oct to March. This will be my first DIAD 5 peak. About 3 guys wear them all year and haven't heard any compains.

These are the best gloves. They actually get better after a few wash cycles. Also, you can use the diad with ease but make sure you get the right size for sure.

This is what I use as well, but as Stink said, I only wear gloves through the cold, dry months. The rest of the year I go barehand.

Also, the ironclads are washable. Don't machine dry them. Only air dry.

Whatever lol. Enjoy those cut up hands. Seduction is from smoothness not sandpaper.

Its not just getting your hands cut up, cracked bleeding etc...Most of us have worked inside and have seen guys in a trailer snot on a box, or worse. Then there is the mystery goop. One night a package broke open and leaked on a bunch of other ones. It was like this sticky cinnamon smelling stuff that burnt a bunch of us. Our skin was burning like we were on fire. This stuff doesn't stay in the hub. We deliver it...Gloves for the win.

I wear gloves for one reason and one reason only...............my wife doesn't want gritty cut up hands caressing her boobies.

I wear gloves all year long, even during the summer. My hands are in great shape though.
